  • Exploring the Economic Geography of Ireland1
    Working Paper No. 271 December 2008 www.esri.ie Exploring the Economic Geography of Ireland1 Edgar Morgenroth Subsequently published as "Exploring the Economic Geography of Ireland", Journal of the Statistical and Social Inquiry Society of Ireland, Vol. 38, pp.42-73, (2008/2009). Abstract: Only a few research papers have analysed the spatial distribution of economic activity in Ireland. There are a number of reasons for this, not least the fact that comprehensive data on the location of economic activity by sector across all sectors has not been available at the highly disaggregated spatial level. This paper firstly establishes the geographic distribution of employment at the 2 digit NACE level, using a novel approach that utilises a special tabulation from the CSO 2006 Census of Population Place of Work Anonymised Records (POWCAR). It then analyses the spatial patterns of this distribution using maps and more formal methods such measures of spatial concentration and tests for spatial autocorrelation. The paper considers the locational preferences of individual sectors, the degree to which specific sectors agglomerate and co-agglomerate, and thus will uncover urbanisation effects and differences across urban and rural areas regarding economic activity. Keywords: Economic geography, employment distribution JEL Classification: R12, R14, R30. Corresponding Author: [email protected] 1 The author would like to thank the CSO, and particularly Gerry Walker, for making available the data used in the analysis.

John Morrissey 1 Cultural geographies of the contact zone: Gaels, Galls and overlapping territories in late medieval Ireland John Morrissey Department of Geography, National University of Ireland, Galway, University Road, Galway, Ireland. Tel.: 353 91 492267. Fax: 353 91 495505. E-mail: [email protected] In writing about the social and cultural geographies of the past, we frequently reinforce notions of difference by using neatly delineated ethnic terms of reference that often superscribe the complexities of reality on the ground. Referring to ‘Gaels’ and ‘Galls’, demarcating ‘native’ and ‘foreign’ worlds in late medieval Ireland, is but one example. We often exaggerate, too, the boundedness of geographical space by speaking more of frontiers and less of overlapping territories. Using the context of late medieval Ireland, I propose in this paper the application and broadening of the concept of the contact zone – prevalent in postcolonial studies for a number of years – to address this specific issue of overstating social and cultural geographical cohesion and separation in the past.

  • New Irish Cuisine a Comprehensive Study of Its Nature and Recent Popularity
    New Irish cuisine A comprehensive study of its nature and recent popularity An MSc thesis New Irish cuisine A comprehensive study of its nature and recent popularity Pedro Martínez Noguera [email protected] 950723546110 Study program: MSc Food Technology (MFT) Specialisation: Gastronomy Course code: RSO-80433 Rural Sociology Supervisor: dr. Oona Morrow Examiner: prof.dr.ing. JSC Wiskerke June, 2020 Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to various people without whom nothing of this would have been possible. First, thank you Oona for your fantastic supervision. Digging into the sociology of food has been truly eye-opening. Second, many thanks to all the warmhearted Irish people I have had the pleasure to meet throughout this journey: chefs, foodies, colleagues of the postgrad office at UCC, and the marvelous friends I made in Cork and Galway. Third, thanks to Irene and Gio. Their generosity deserves space on these lines. Finally, this thesis is especially dedicated to my family, my brothers and particularly my parents, for their incalculable support and for having let me freely pursue all my dreams. 3 Abstract Irish gastronomy has experienced a great transformation in the last couple of decades. High-end restaurants have gone from being predominantly French or British throughout the 20th century to depicting today a distinctive Irish tone. I have referred to this fashion as new Irish cuisine (NIC), a concept that attempts to enclose all fine-dining ventures that serve modern Irish food in Ireland and their common cooking ethos. This research has aimed to investigate thoroughly the nature of this culinary identity from a Bourdieuian perspective and to contextualize its emergence.

  • Legitimating the Traditional Hamlet in Ireland
    TDSR VOLUME XXIX NUMBER II 2018 23 “A Shower from the Sky”: Legitimating the Traditional Hamlet in Ireland BARRY O’REILLY Traditional hamlets constitute a largely unacknowledged component of Ireland’s settle- ment pattern. The reasons include a lack of clarity about their nature and origins, issues of nomenclature, and a longstanding misperception of their “formlessness.” Stigmatized by an association with poverty and the Great Famine (1845–49), as well as by government and landlord efforts to rationalize or eradicate them, a great number of these traditional settle- ments have disappeared from the landscape. Yet, at the same time, public discourse today fails to acknowledge them, polarizing discussion of rural settlement between dispersed (“ancient”) and urban (“alien”) modes. Research by the present writer, however, confirms that, far from being exceptional, Irish traditional hamlets have recognizable forms and types, and indeed fit well into the mainstream of European settlement. Ironically, a recent policy shift toward encouraging clustered rural housing attempts to bridge the divide, but could end up adversely affecting the distinctiveness of these historic nucleations. Perhaps the most striking aspect of reaction [in the wake of the Great Famine] is to be found in the expressed desire of most country people to have an isolated dwelling- house. The clachan or hamlet, once the centre of communal life and tradition, is despised, a symbol of squabbling poverty, and it is the wish of nearly everyone to have a house where he cannot be overlooked.1 This statement from 1957 by the eminent geographer Emyr Estyn Evans is just as rel- evant sixty years on.

It is separated from Great Britain to its east by the North Channel, the Irish Sea, and St George's Channel. • It is separated from the neighbouring island of Great Britain by the Irish Sea and the North Channel. • To the west is the northern Atlantic Ocean and to the south is the Celtic Sea, which lies between Ireland and Brittany, in France. • Is located in the north- west of Europe, between latitudes 51° and 56° N, and longitudes 11° and 5° W. • Ireland has a total area of 84,421 km2 • Ireland is the second- largest island of the British Isles, the third- largest in Europe, and the twentieth- largest on Earth • The region was subjected to glacier and periglacial erosion, for which the U-shaped valleys, the drumlin and the esker, which are characteristic of the periglacial forms, are common. • The limestones are covered by clays and sands from the remains of glacial erosion, forming the gentle hills that characterize the landscape of Irish countryside. • This structure explains the arrangement of mountain ranges, all of them coastal. The main ones are Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Comeragh Hills, Blackstair Mountains, Wicklow Hills, Sperrin Mountains, Bluestack Mountains, Derryveagh Hills, Ox Mountains, Nephinbeg Hills, Mountains Twelve Goods and Maumturks. • In the south there are some mountains a little further from the coast: the Galtee Mountains, the Silvermines Mountains and Slieve Bloom. • A ring of coastal mountains surround low plains at the centre of the island.

  • Journal of Forensic & Investigative Accounting Vol. 6, Issue 3, Special
    Journal of Forensic & Investigative Accounting Vol. 6, Issue 3, Special International Issue, 2014 Forensic Accounting in a Constitutional Parliamentary Democracy: The Case of Ireland Niamh M. Brennan* This paper commences with a contextual overview of the economic geography of Ireland, followed in Section 2 by an overview of the Irish legal system. The paper concludes by examining the forensic accounting profession in Ireland. Sources used include Brennan et al. (1992) for the context material in Section 1 and some of the material on the accounting profession in Section 3; and Brennan and Hennessy (2001a) for the material on forensic accounting. The case law cited in the paper is entirely from the Irish courts. Many judgments of the United Kingdom courts and other common-law jurisdictions would have currency in the Irish courts. Brennan and Hennessy (2001a) is the seminal (and only) text on this subject in Ireland. It deals in-depth with all aspects of forensic accounting practice with extensive citation from judgments of the Irish (and other common-law) courts. The text is inter-disciplinary with both a strong accounting and legal focus. A number of shorter more accessible articles have being written by the authors, such as Brennan (2005) and Brennan and Hennessy (2001b, 2001c, 2001d, 2001e, 2001f). More recent articles on the subject include Hyland and McGloin (2008), Brown (2011), Fitzgerald (2011) and Idowu (2011). CONTEXT This short introductory context section summarizes the geography and population of Ireland and its political institutions. * Niamh M. Brennan is Michael MacCormac Professor of Management at University College Dublin, Ireland, and Academic Director of the UCD Centre for Corporate Governance.

And I will be forever. Tóg suas mo cheann Raise up my head Cuir áthas ar mo chroí Put joy in my heart Labhraígí mé Speak me Ó labhraígí mé! Oh speak me! — Anonymous 2 ABSTRACT The case of the Irish language could be considered an anomaly – a nation that, in most of its territory, achieved its independence about 100 years ago should, on paper, not speak the language of their colonizers. However, this is not the case in Ireland. The most accepted theory on the poor state of the language is that the nationalists who kick started the Irish national movement gave more importance to religion than to culture and language, thus linking a free Ireland with the Catholic fate and leaving the Gaelic language and culture aside.

  • The Navel of Ireland: a Sacred Geography
    SYNOPSIS The Navel of Ireland A Sacred Geography Toby D. Griffen When we think about Ireland, we generally imagine the ancient land of the Celts. Ireland, however, goes back much further in history, and it is also somewhat problematic to make a division in time between the Irish of the great stone monuments and the people of the Heroic Age of Cúchulainn. By-and-large, the people were the same, and those we think of as Celts simply adopted and adapted the beliefs brought in by the Gaels, grafting them onto the religious traditions that had developed in the Ages of Stone. Indeed, everything comes from the stone — in particular, the Stone of Uisneach, believed to be at the very center of Ireland. At least, this was the ritual center of Ireland, the center of the sacred geography. In the comparative, anthropological approach to religion, we call such a center the omphalos ‘the navel’, for it is here that the sacred land of Ireland was born. Of course, the Irish can do nothing in a simple, one-dimensional way. When we take in the panorama of the sacred geography of Ireland from the navel stone of Uisneach — the Stone of Divisions — we see it all in three dimensions: the vertical divisions, the circular divisions, and divisions of the four cardinal points. The Vertical Divisions Like all such navels in the world’s religions, Uisneach represents the point at which heaven, earth, and the underworld meet. This is the Irish equivalent to the rocks of Bethel, where Jacob saw in a dream the angels ascending and descending the ladder to heaven; and it corresponds as well to the holy stone of Ka’aba in Mecca, which fell from heaven, opening up a line of communication.
